Bitterness is the taste of fiery love grown cold On a lover's breath Putrid is the smell of a well worn out fantasy left hanging in your secret closet Rancid is the look of unrequited love On once vibrant lovers' lips Hardened are the veins of a desperate old fool Longing for love Cursed was the day I let you inside The exquisite warmth that is my beating heart

*** Only silence..
Bitterness is the taste of fiery love grown cold On a lover's breath Putrid is the smell of a well worn out fantasy left hanging in your secret closet Rancid is the look of unrequited love On once vibrant lovers' lips Hardened are the veins of a desperate old fool Longing for love Cursed was the day I let you inside The exquisite warmth that is my beating heart
Getting more mileage out of that brief affair.. Because it was preceded by an over decade long distance friendship , which I miss. Plus, I really really like the guy.. As in love like. . And I don't easily find myself so taken with anyone in that way.....
